Oxana [17]3 years ago

4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

The formula for Kinetic Energy is

$KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$ . Filling in:

$KE=\frac{1}{2}(1200)(20)^2$ It looks like we only need 1 significant digit here but I'll give you 2 and you can round how you want.

KE = 2.4 × 10⁵ J

Water that flows from behind a large dam can cause machines to produce electricity. What change takes place?

lyudmila [28]

The mechanical energy in the falling water is used to spin the generator, and gets transformed into electrical energy. That's the first choice on the list.

A pulsar is a rapidly rotating neutron star. The Crab nebula pulsar in the constellation Taurus has a period of 33.5\times 10^{-

joja [24]

Answer:

$5.25\cdot 10^{40} kg m^2/s$

Explanation:

The angular momentum of the pulsar is given by:

$L=m\omega r^2$

where

$m=2.8\cdot 10^{30} kg$ is the mass of the pulsar

$r = 10.0 km = 1\cdot 10^4 m$ is the radius

$\omega$ is the angular speed

Given the period of the pulsar, $T=33.5\cdot 10^{-3} s$ , the angular speed is given by

$\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}=\frac{2 \pi}{33.5\cdot 10^{-3}s}=187.5 rad/s$

And so, the angular momentum is

$L=m\omega r^2=(2.8\cdot 10^{30}kg)(187.5 rad/s)(1\cdot 10^4 m)^2=5.25\cdot 10^{40} kg m^2/s$
